Seriously what the fuck was that? Is IdrA throwing games to try and make Protoss look OP? His macro was absolutely atrocious, he was floating 4k+ minerals pretty much the entire time. What the hell is the point in making so many Drones if you aren't even going to use them?


He was maxed. lol. And zergs need that Spine crawler buffer late game, thus why he over droned so much, so he could do that. Idra played a solid game. White ra pretty nullified too much of idra's army with the archon toilet.


Did you seriously watch the game? He was floating tons of money way before he was maxed, he broke 5k minerals on 160 supply and rarely went below 4k.

That game was far from solid.

Did you see his gas? -.-' He was going for broodlord infestor, then he needs gas god damn it.


That's no excuse. There is absolutely no reason not to throw down a macro hatch and pump some disposable lings when you are floating that much money. Or he could have just mass expanded and mined more gas, if the hatches die then no big deal he wasn't using the money anyway. Or he could have thrown down mass Spines, there is ALWAYS a use for spare minerals.

Even if he didn't want to do all that, if you don't need minerals then don't make so many damn Drones. What the hell is the point in pumping out dozens of Drones then not use the money they bring in? It's a complete waste, he could have had a much stronger maxed army.

His play was terrible and considering he has just forfeited the rest of his matches for today I think he realises it.

Dude, did you see all those spines Idra put up?... Also, yeah I completely see where he did wrong. He could totally set up more bases when the protoss had collossus shooting at his base, 20 warp gates ready for use, more bases than him etc. Do you know that Idra was hardcore jetlagged? much stronger maxed army? Zerg has no stronger army than broodlord infestor with spine support. If you didnt see, that flashy circle with archons in it killed them all in 2 shots. Mothership needs toi be used more often ;o


What are you talking about? Did you watch the damn game? Colossus shooting at his base? I'm not talking about the last damn 30 seconds, he was floating minerals the whole time. Yes he had Spines up but he could have had more. Obviously he was jetlagged, that's why he was playing so damn terrible. No stronger maxed army? How about a maxed army with 20 fewer Drones and more supply in combat units?

The Mothership had nothing to do with IdrA's atrocious economy management. He played like crap and that's why he is forfeiting to go and get some rest, he must be exhausted.

IPL needs to word it in their contracts to avoid these voluntary forfeits. This is suppose to be entertainment. We are not entertained

IPL this season is ridiculous. RIDICULOUS. That is ridiculously good. So many great highlights, so much contest, cracking matches and interviews in all channels.

By far the best tournament so far, IMO.

It was played already as Idra v WhiteRa was going on. StC won 2-1 apparently.

Warp prisms really are ridiculously strong on that map.

They give you total map control. If you make 2 and patrol them on the unoccupied quarters of the map you basically deny all expansions.

Unless the zerg is going for muta play, I don't see any good way to stop that.

Seriously IdrA, "china time"..

Jet lag is brutal. If you have never experienced it, it can take several days to get back to normal. SC2 is a game of focus.

Somehow the Koreans manage.


This. People are saying it was okay for Idra to forfeit. But they tell people to shut up when they say Koreans are limited due to jet lag.

And yet, the Koreans never whine and they NEVER FORFEIT. Koreans do it all the time, why not Idra?

Some of you complaining about this have to realize that to win this tournament, he'll have to play some of the best of the best as it is. Whether it's in the first round because of seeding or the 3rd or finals it doesn't matter. If he is playing to win, he'll have to put up great games against great people.

Given jetlag is basically a guarantee, it's completely understandable he'd want to get some sleep since he expected to be done at this time, not just starting his matches for the night.

Also, starting off 0-1 makes the likelihood of first in the group less already, and he asked himself if 2nd place was really worth those extra hours being taken away from his sleep schedule.
